A man travels through time and becomes a widow, only wanting to pursue a career

Dragon Boat Festival.

The weather is also like a happy event, with clear skies and gentle winds.

The Chen family got up early.

Chen Changsheng packed the four egg cages and four salted duck eggs he bought last night before going to bed one by one, and gave one to each of the children.

Although it is a holiday, the family's business cannot be delayed, and the tofu curd and ground vegetables must continue to be delivered.

Chen Changsheng bought a packet of electrolytic multi-dimensional nutritional powder in his bracelet and dissolved it with water. After asking Sanshou to feed the chickens in the yard, he rushed to the fields to catch insects.

The chickens just came to the ground, each one cleverly took a bite of a worm, and soon they were full of food.

Chen Erlu took the time to water a few acres of land at home. His mother said that he would notify every household to hold a meeting tonight, and watering the land would no longer be such a troublesome thing in the future.

The Chen family cooked a pot of brown rice porridge in the morning, which was just right with a rice dumpling and a salted duck egg for each person.

After everything was packed at home, Chen Changsheng locked the courtyard door and the family of five set out for the county town.

"Sister-in-law of the Chen family, aren't you going to rest at home during this big holiday?" Chen Daniu asked while driving the car.

Chen Changsheng's family was the only one riding the bullock cart today. Everyone else in the village was celebrating the festival at home. If four of the five members of the Chen family hadn't taken the car and could earn eight cents a day, Chen Daniu would have wanted to take a day off today.

"We rural people say they don't take a break. During the holidays, we have to deliver vegetables and tofu to customers first." Chen Changsheng chatted with a smile.

As soon as the oxcart arrived at the gate of Baishui County, the waiter from Liuji Restaurant was already waiting, with a little anxious expression on his face, "Sister-in-law is finally here. Our host family tasted the ground vegetables you sent yesterday and thought it was very good, so I asked my sister-in-law to From now on, I will deliver forty pounds every morning."

The clerk took out four taels of silver from his pocket, "This is the silver for the next three days. After that, there will be three hundred bowls of tofu puffs and forty kilograms of ground vegetables every day, a total of two taels of silver."

He calculated quickly. Chen Changsheng checked again and found that he was right. He nodded and accepted the money.

Si Xi whispered from the side, "Mom, did that person make a mistake in his calculation? He is so fast. If only I could be as good as him."

Chen Changsheng smiled and said, "What, my Sixi wants to learn arithmetic? How about Mom find a teacher to teach you in a few days?"

She knew the multiplication table, and she knew how to calculate vertical and horizontal equations, but Chen Changsheng was the only one who didn't know how to do abacus.

The shopkeepers in these ancient times were all calculated. If they wanted to teach a few children arithmetic, they would really have to find someone to teach them.

The waiter said, "If there is no problem with my sister-in-law, then I will go back first."

Chen Changsheng saw the waiter in a hurry and couldn't help but ask, "Are you in a hurry? You seem to be in a hurry."

"Today is the Dragon Boat Festival. There is a dragon boat race arranged in Sishui County. It has started at about the right time. I will rush back now and maybe I can catch the tail. If you are right, I will take the first step!"

The man drove the carriage away with a "drink".

Chen Daniu suddenly remembered and slapped his forehead, "Oh, when it comes to dragon boat racing, I forgot about our Baishui County dragon boat race. I'll send you, sister-in-law of the Chen family, to Ruyi Restaurant first. If you're done with your work, I'll be in trouble." Wait for me at the city gate. I'll be back after watching the dragon boat race."

With that said, he also drove the ox cart to send the Chen family to Ruyi Restaurant.

Chen Changsheng asked as he walked, "Uncle Niu, where is the dragon boat race held?"

"Right next to the pier, the Shen family of Water Transport and the government organize a dragon boat race every year. All businesses and powerful villages in Baishui County will participate. There are more than ten dragon boats. There are too many people, so I have to hurry up. Go get a good seat.”

pier? Isn't that the place where she sells tofu bread?

Since there is a dragon boat race at the pier, there are probably a lot of people watching the excitement. Aren't those people the perfect target customers?

"Uncle Niu, we are going to the pier too. After delivering the goods from Ruyi Restaurant, you can take us to the pier together."

Baishui County holds a dragon boat race every year, and the race takes place at Shen's dock. The Shen family will clear the pier in the afternoon of the first day, and will not allow passenger ships to enter on the morning of the Dragon Boat Festival. It will be used exclusively for dragon boat races.

Chen Changsheng and his party rushed to the pier, but before they even got close, noisy and festive sounds rushed towards them.

Both sides of the river bank were already crowded with spectators, all with smiling faces. They were people from all over the country. Many people came here before dawn, occupying the best viewing area.

It was really a huge crowd.

Not far from the pier is the starting point of the dragon boat race. There is a small stage set up there. There is a person who looks like a host organizing the participants from each village. There are also two drummers on the stage.

Many strong men wearing white coats, rolled up trousers and bare feet carried the dragon boats towards the starting point. After registering, you can go in directly.

Chen Daniu parked the oxcart in the open space at the outermost edge of the pier, handed it over to someone to take care of it, and then went straight to the river bank and got into the crowd.

Chen Changsheng divided the tofu nao into two parts, one for Dafu and Sixi to sell on the east side of the pier, and the other for Erlu and Sanshou to sell on the west side.

She came closer to the children and said, "There are too many people here, you guys don't run around, you know? Especially Sanshou and Sixi, you two must not run around."

The game hasn't started yet, but the sun is already very bright, and the crowd watching is already sweating.

Seeing Chen Changsheng's iced tofu puffs, everyone ran over to buy and eat them, and business was extremely hot.

The little girl Sixi was cute and had a sweet mouth. She kept shouting "Brother, sister," and not long after, Dafu and Sixi sold out a bucket of tofu. He picked up his things and headed towards Erlu's stall.

"Mom, can I go see dragon boat racing?" There was a lot of people on the river, and Chen Sixi couldn't help but want to join in the fun.

Growing up, Sixi followed her mother to the city a few times in the past few days, and finally came across a dragon boat competition held in the city, so naturally she wanted to take a look.

Chen Changsheng herself had never seen an ancient dragon boat race. She happened to want to see how the ancients said dragon boat races were held, so she agreed, "Mom, I plan to go and have a look. You can follow me. Dafu, are you going?"

Chen Dafu was probably afraid that Erlu would not be able to find them after the tofu was sold out, so he shook his head and insisted on going to Erlu, "Mom, you and Sixi go. Erlu and Sanshou haven't sold it yet. Finished, I’m going to help.”

Chen Changsheng smiled and said, "Then if you sell out, put your things on the ox cart first, and the three of you can find your own seats to watch the competition. When the dragon boat is over, everyone will meet up on the ox cart. No running around, remember? "

Dafu nodded and remembered.

Chen Changsheng held Si Xi's hand tightly to prevent him from being scattered by the crowd. The two people walked and stopped, finally picked a place with slightly fewer people to stop, and began to squeeze in as hard as they could.
